The Official NBA Season Thread: Season Starts Now

Not everyone should have Lebby's level of influence over franchises. With great power, comes great responsibility.

Same energy :lol

 
Glenn just got $40 million in the middle of the season because of what he did 16 years ago.
Yea the difference in that group is that Pierce and KG were already made men by the time they actually won, that didn't make or break their legacies in the game.

Can't say that for Doc as a coach or Perk :lol

Don’t really think that first paragraph is true at all. Especially with the prevalence of rings culture.

They had both been known as dudes that hadn’t gotten over the hump.
 
doc does get some wild opportunities, but in his defense he's also been paired with some of the biggest playoff chokers we've seen in the past 20 years.... and they have failed at the same rate w/o doc

Ring culture hadn't become the unavoidable phenomenon that it is now though :lol:, that all happened post-The Decision.

They'd get some of that talk but there was no widespread downplaying of them as players ever. KG was still a main face of the league and Pierce was highly respected as one of the best scorers in the world.
 
For a franchise that was nothing before him, the chip was nice but I don't think he needed it to be immortalized.

It was the cherry on top of an already 1st ballot HOF resume imo

Going to disagree. A HOF career is one thing but being a top 25-40 player ever is another. He doesn’t enter that conversation with just a WCF L on his resume IMO
